Ardmore Show Down

[Gavin Conroy]

Here are a few photos from the Wings And Wheels event held at Ardmore last weekend.
Have just put more on my website.

Great shots....darn I thought somebody had bought a full size Mig-25 and managed to get it out of Ardmore ..impressive model though

Had me fooled as well!!!Pity about the "spoiler" last pic, eh?

Great to see some stunning pics of NZ1078 (having just done the repaint). I wish I'd gone now!!!!!

#1 Is a total *winner*. One of your very best, IMHO.

Couple of pics raising the bar yet again: 078 inverted with wing glint... not so easy, that one.
#1 is just fantastic.
And I do like #2...again. My that is one glossy aeroplane, makes 078 look positively crinkly.
The MiG? dead give-away, that peeling star on the wing!
Great posting, hope you had suitable eye protection for the in-sun shots.

Maybe its been bought out to replace the F-22 at Ohakea for the airshow
Not sure how that rumour started about the F-22 but this Mig 25 sure is a great looking model.

awesome stuff Mr C !...I know I'll get yelled at again....and i know its better than nothing...but.......that strikemaster is sad

[Ian Warren]

WOW .. a Mig 25 - no ones been that close before

That MiG-25 model actually lives in a hangar at Ardmore, so you know it's pretty serious!
